Mind-boggling pop music coincidences (part 1)

There once was a young girl called Amy Studt. She wanted to be a pop star. And she was. For three moderately successful singles in 2003/2004. The whole British Avril Lavigne idea didn't really work out. But Amy wants a second bite of the pop star cherry, and is making a "comeback" with a new single called Nice Boys. The video is over here. I gave it a look and her voice reminded me a tiny bit of Amanda Palmer (from the Dresden Dolls). Amy also looks like Amanda Palmer. If Amanda was from Bournemouth and shopped at Claire's Accessories.
I had a look at the video for Amy Studt's 2003 hit single (number 6 on the UK charts single), Misfit. In it, she performs at the end of term school concert in front of big spangly letters spelling out AMY.

And below is the video for Amanda Palmer's 2008 single, Leeds United. In it, she performs at a burlesque cabaret club in front of big spangly letters spelling out AMANDA.

Coincidence? I don't think so. There are only two logical explanations here.
1) Amanda Palmer was not only aware of Amy Studt but also influenced by her.
2) The Amy Studt of 2003 travelled into 2008, looked at the video for Leeds United on Pitchfork, thought it was cool, travelled back to 2003, pitched the idea of making a video in which she performs in front of big spangly letters spelling out her name to her record label, made a video in which she performs in front of big spangly letters spelling out her name...
